Monologue Workshop

The Monologue Workshop features pieces written by playwrights participating in the Play Lab. Attending actors are given access to a database of new monologues, then have the opportunity to work with Frank Collison and Laura Gardner in individual sessions at the Conference. The pieces are then presented on the final Saturday of the event.

There are no separate submissions for the Monologue Workshop. Pieces are solicited yearly from writers presenting in the Play Lab.

The following one-page document tells actors exactly what they should do to prepare for working on a monologue; it was created by Laura Gardner.

Monologues for this year’s Workshop are listed below, with links to pdf documents with the monologues in them. If two people have already signed up for a piece, “(no longer available)” is a part of the title. You can sign up as an alternate but should pick another piece in order to make sure you can participate.
